U+1182 "ᆂ" Hangul Jungseong O-O Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+1182 "ᆂ" Hangul Jungseong O-O is a Korean Hangul vowel component representing a specific medial sound, composed of the letters "o" (ㅗ) and "o" (ㅗ) stacked vertically, which was historically used to transcribe the diphthong /we/ in Middle Korean. This character belongs to the Hangul Jamo block and is classified as a modern jamo, though it is considered obsolete in contemporary Korean orthography, having been replaced by the digraph ㅚ for the same sound. As a jungseong, or medial vowel, it combines with initial and final consonants to form full Hangul syllables, and its encoding ensures digital representation of historical Korean texts and linguistic research into the evolution of the Korean writing system.
